Thanks for the Reviews!! So I suppose we must continue... Don't worry about other characters entering the Phic, they all will, one by one. (Well, maybe a few won't show up, but none that will be missed much :D)
-------------------------chapter 2!!!!!
(We find ourselves in the home of Christine Daaé, it is simple and pleasant. Her mother is out at the moment, at a convention in Tennessee, but she gave Christine permission to have a small party at the house, as long as they didn't make a mess. Annette and Christine are setting up a snack table, while discussing the odd events of that afternoon.)
Annette: after the party, we'll clean up and you can come back to my house, you shouldn't take any chances with your wallet missing and your mother being gone.
Christine: I know, I know, I just want to get through this party without Carlotta making a total fool of me.
Annette: I don't understand why you would invite her, she hates you, and you hate her.
Christine: Yes well, We are the only two in school that can't stand her, and if she didn't come I don't think anyone else would.
Annette: (Gives Christine a nudge with her elbow) Except Raoul (wink) .
Christine: (Blushes) He's just a friend Annette!
Annette: Right...
(The doorbell rings, Annette opens the door to reveal a handsome and dashing young man.)
Annette: Oh, Hi Raoul...
Raoul: Hey Annette, do you know where Christine is?
Annette: She's in the living room.
(Raoul makes a mad dash for the living room.)
Annette: (under her breathe) Fop...
(While Raoul drools over Christine, the party guest arrive one by one, Each one greeted by Annette's sweetest smile...Until...)
DING DONG
Annette: (opens the door, her smile disappears) Hello, Carlotta. Carlotta: (bursts past Annette and walks grandly into the living room, where all the other party guest are mingling) The Life of the party has arrived! (She beams).
(Everyone rushes over to Carlotta, chattering loudly about her dress, and her upcoming appearance in the leading role of My Fair Lady.)
Christine: --
Meg: Oh, Carlotta! I heard Mr. Andre is planning a party for you after the first performance!
Carlotta: yes, well, I am the school's Prima Donna!
Christine and Annette: (Roll their eyes)
(The party progresses, Carlotta sings "wouldn't it be loverly" for her adoring fans while Christine loses herself in a mixture of Longing and Loathing. Annette, noticing Christine, proposes a singing competition, the majority of the guest scoff)
Reyer: Who can sing better then Carlotta?!
Annette: Well, I'd like to give it a shot...Christine, what about you?
Christine: (coming back to reality) Hmm?...ME?!
Annette: no...I mean Raoul...(rolls her eyes in the direction of the Fop)
Raoul: Hey!! (Annette slaps him on the back of the head)
Carlotta: Fine. I'll go first (she sings "Colors of the Wind")
Annette: (whispers to Christine) She sounds like she's singing through her nose...(pushes her nose up in an imitation of a Pig) oink...oink.
(They laugh quietly while Carlotta finishes up her song)
Annette: My turn...(clears her throat several times)
Carlotta: Just get on with it Already!!!
Annette: All right, all right! Keep your skirt on! (Sings "My Heart Will Go On")
Carlotta: Of course she chooses a pop song! (She and the present Carlotta fans snicker)
Annette: (imitates Jack Black in School of Rock by holding up her index, middle, and ring fingers and shouting) "READ BETWEEN THE LINES!"
Annette: (calming herself) Christine, show this uncultured cow what real talent is!
Christine: No Annette...
Carlotta: Come on "Chorus Member #35", you can't even get a decent part in a school musical...I bet you can't hit anything above a B Flat!
(In light of this insult Christine immediately begins to sing "God Help the Outcast". When she finishes there is a Long silence... In the Meantime, Erik has found his way to Christine's home, climbing in her open window (after climbing a tree :P) and has been watching this scene from the shadowy stairwell. He is entranced by Christine...he is now certain that she is his angel of discount...)
Annette: (breaking the silence) you go girl!
Christine: (looking very embarrassed) don't ever say that again, Annette...
Raoul: (drools over Christine...as he normally does)
Carlotta: I think I must be going. (She grabs her things and stomps to the door, her fans (consisting of everyone except Annette, Christine, and Raoul) in tow.) Adieu! (And they are gone)
Annette...HOLY CRAP! THAT WAS AWESOME!!! We showed that cow!
Raoul: (wiping his drool-covered mouth with his sleeve) That was wonderful...
Christine: I feel so stupid.
Annette: Don't! That was great, you sh- (there is a shuffling sound from upstairs) What the hell was that!?
Raoul: Don't worry ladies, (Takes a deep breath and puffs out his chest) I'll protect you!
Christine: Annette, I'm going to get my things and we're going to your house ASAP.
Raoul: awww...Parties over? (
(Annette and Christine give Raoul a nasty glare)
(Christine grabs a Mickey Mouse flashlight and slowly ascends the staircase up to her room...She flicks the light switch ...nothing, just her small room)
Christine: (relieved sigh)
(Suddenly the lights flicker out and the door closes behind her.)
Christine: whimpers incoherently
Erik: I have come for you my angel of discount... to lead you to my world were love and low prices abound...
(Erik begins to sing soothingly to Christine, she is under his spell. He picks her up and somehow manages to get to the first floor without a scratch... He takes her off to Big Lots where his lair awaits...)
Annette: (Enters Christine's room) Christine! Where are you?! (Sees a note lying on the dresser reads:) Dear Annette, Went to the IN and OUT mart, meet you at your house, Love Christine. Shrug O..kay
(Back at Big Lots, Christine is singing a duet with the Phantom as they make their way to his basement lair)
Christine: In Aisle 7 he sang to me
In Giry's office, he came...
That voice so strange to me,
But knows my name
And have I lost my mind
For now I find,
The Phantom of Big Lots is there
a stock boy of some kind...
(The song ends, because they've already reached Erik's "lair", which has a striking resemblance to the home of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)
Erik: Let us talk of your future as a singer...
--------------------------------------END..sort of
Okay...they sucked from my POV, but who know, maybe some demented Phan will read this at 3 A.M and find it slightly amusing...
R&R Please...
